Answer:

[tex](x-3)^2=4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Tara's work is shown below:

[tex]\begin{aligned} 2(x-3)^2+6&=14 \\\\ 2(x-3)^2&=8&\text{Step }1 \\\\ &&\text{Step }2 \\\\ x-3&=\pm 2&\text{Step }3 \\\\ x=1&\text{ or }x=5&\text{Step }4 \end{aligned}[/tex]

From the equation, we notice that in Step 1, Tara did:

[tex]2(x-3)^2+6=14\\2(x-3)^2=14-6\\2(x-3)^2=8[/tex]

She is trying to isolate the x-variable. Therefore, the next logical step will be to divide both sides by 2 and her Step 2 will therefore be:

[tex]\dfrac{2(x-3)^2}{2} =\dfrac{8}{2} \\\\(x-3)^2=4[/tex]

Tara could have written: [tex](x-3)^2=4[/tex] as her step 2 and we would then have her work as:

[tex]\begin{aligned} 2(x-3)^2+6&=14 \\\\ 2(x-3)^2&=8&\text{Step }1 \\\\ (x-3)^2&=4&\text{Step }2 \\\\ x-3&=\pm 2&\text{Step }3 \\\\ x=1&\text{ or }x=5&\text{Step }4 \end{aligned}[/tex]
